Crashes on loading some maps, not others.

[DarkEternal]

I have been trying to run Spring v88 on OS X. Once its loaded and running, is actually runs pretty well 99% of the time. The catch is, over half of the maps I have tried crash after everything loads, but before the game starts. It appears to be a memory related crash by looking at the crash report (EXC_BAD_ACC). Is there something I can do about this, its defiantly tied to maps - I can load the ones that work over and over, and never load the ones that don't work. Ive tried probably 30 maps, maybe 10 have worked.

Have you tried setting "LoadingMT = 0" ( http://springrts.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=27154 )

Also might be worth checking out the OSX specific sub-forum http://springrts.com/phpbb/viewforum.php?f=65

if that doesn't help maybe uploading the infolog.txt to http://pastebin.com and providing a list of maps that work and do not work would be helpful to people who know more then me... I'm just spouting stuff I'm finding in other places on the forums.

I have, it does not make any difference. I have played with all kinds of settings to get it to this point, but nothing else seems to help any more. Its crasher AFTER the map is loaded, once I have joined and while the AI is joining. Doesn't seem to matter what AI is being used.

Here is the OS X crash report: http://pastebin.com/h5yqQxkH

Here is the info log: http://pastebin.com/b0N48wik

Stack trace looks like a dangling pointer....

does it work with NoSound = 1 ?

does it work with --safemode?

does it work with "Commanders" (start spring and select "Commanders" as ai) ?

RAI causes hangs on start on large maps / maps with many metal spots, see http://springrts.com/mantis/view.php?id=3036 (but no crash...)

you could also try to increase HangTimeout, so that the Watchdog doesn't create stacktraces so early. It looks a bit like the Stacktrace causes the crash...
